Reader Response 1: Huck Finn (1 - 6)

Theme is racism.
Miss Watson’s big nigger Jim. (Pg3 last paragraph chapter 2)
The n word is used to as an adjective to describe jim.
This is almost similar to my life because I have been called the n word to describe me plenty of times. The n word has a bad meaning. Its use as a good meaning sometimes .Back in mark twain old days the n word was used a lot to describe black people. The white people got the n word from being ignorant. Black people are in a stage when they except the n word.I have been called the n word a lot of times. The n word doesn’t bother me depending on the person who says it.
Back in mark twain day I think the n word was apart of life for black people. I think his knowledge was before his time. I also think that he was a person willing to try something new.
